Default UPS saves 3 million gallons in gas

How? No left turns!

I might start "turning right" from now on. It actually isn't hard to do despite initial reaction, as I did it one day when my left blinker was out and I had to drive home lol.

Big applause to them!

I have been doing the same thing for years. Partly for gas saving and also because it's faster; and safer.

I tried it for a day or so two, although it takes some quick thinking when calculating old routes, it is indeed alot safer and alot faster.
